When I conduct a meeting, there is an icon at the bottom of the screen called Participants that shows the list of active viewers in the meeting room.  This list is pinned to the side of the view screen and maintains its size and location throughout the session. 

I accidentally unpinned the list from the side of the view screen.  Now, the box is of small size and doesn't fill in the empty space.  How do I pin it back to the side of my view screen to keep a constant size?

How to view participant video when I'm sharing my screen?

Hi all. I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to view meeting participant video in gallery view while I am sharing my screen? I want to view both the shared screen content and the video of participants at the same time, and it seems the only way to do this is with floating thumbnail videos? The problem with this is that the floating thumbnails block the content I am sharing. I want both the shared content and the participant video to be present during hte meeting, but also to show up on hte recording.

 

Does anyone know if this is possible with the free, Basic version? And if it can be done without using two screens? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I can't seem to figure out how to move participants into breakout rooms and back into the main room in any easy way.  We run a large meeting where cameras are required to be on for all participants. I am trying to forcefully move anyone who has their camera OFF into a breakout room, where one of our staff will be waiting there until they turn their camera back on, at which point they'll be sent back to the main room.

 

At no point in this should the participant themself have control. I want to force move them into the breakout room and then back to the main room. How can I do this?

Screen Sharing Tabbed Apps from a Mac

When screen sharing a tabbed app from my Mac (eg, Pages, Finder), the screen share applies to a single specific tab of the app, and when selecting the screen to share, I must select the tab I wish to be viewed.  If, whilst sharing my screen, I change the tab I am viewing,  screen sharing is  immediately suspended, and my audience continue to see on their screens the original tab.  In order to switch sharing from tab to tab I must stop sharing, and then start it again, explicitly selecting  the  tab I wish to share on each occasion

 

This is very annoying, and completely breaks the flow of what I am explaining, whilst the continual stopping and starting of sharing is confusing to the audience.  Multiple tabs are an essential part of my work.  For example, I might need to edit 4 different documents at the same time in Pages, and to switch between documents.   This is a natural and convenient way of working.    However,  if I am sharing my (for example) Pages screen during a Zoom call  to demonstrate to the other attendees what I am doing, the flow is interrupted each time I need to switch tabs.

 

I have no idea if this is also a feature of screen sharing on platforms other than the Mac, but either way it strikes me as a serious and unintuitive limitation, and a significant defect in Zoom's  otherwise excellent screen sharing facility.

How to save the link from other users in my recording list?

I received someone else link to a recording meeting.  I always keep it in an Excel file, but I want it to be saved in my Zoom account (Recording List).

ANNOUNCEMENTS DURING MEETINGS!!

For some unknown reason, Zoom has started really noisy and disruptive announcements that notify people when screen sharing has begun, when recording starts or ends, and when files are added to the chat. How on earth do I turn this off? It's awful!!! Show more

Video lagging only in Speaker Mode

For the last few months, I have noticed that the speaker video on my end lags when I have their video pinned or in viewing Speaker Mode.  This lag immediately stops when I set it to normal gallery viewing.

Any ideas?

Hi, I recently installed a new DELL video conferencing monitor C2722DE that has an integrated webcam and mic.

Zoom is able to recognize the camera and the mic while in the 'settings' yet as soon as I start the Zoom session, it freezes my entire computer. And yes, it happened during my class session yesterday so not a happy day.

This does not happen with other apps like Skype or Teams, the camera works fine and the sound too. I have installed all updates for zoom and it just keeps happening. Please advise.
